This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Link Highlighting?

At present, in-text links show up as regular text; they aren't any special color.

Is this deliberate?  I'd really prefer to see them in a different color as a basic thing.

You're right, it wouldn't be a bad idea to change it.

I don't know if it is deliberate, but I will research changing it.  I'd prefer to see the links, too.

Aren't they underlined? :confused:
Why are there so many songs about rainbows and what\'s on the other side? Rainbows are visions, but only illusions, and rainbows have nothing to hide.

Turns out that's pretty easy to change.  I'm not so sure about the colors I selected though.

Edit: Weird.  There's a place for me to make the link underlined, but it's not switched on.

Edit some more: Anyway.  I know how to do it.  But I don't think a style change like that is my decision to make, so we'll go back to black until I get the A-okay.

Now all the text on the forum main page itself is a bold blue. :eek:

EDIT:  Scratch that.

Yeah, well those are links, too.  It's one set of variables for all the links.  That may be the reason the links in the post are black.

Yeah, I reverted back to the original scheme.  I don't feel it's my job to change the visuals of the site without consulting Pundit.

It is. I double-checked in both Firefox and IE and even though they're the same color as the text, the links are underlined -- or at least that's how I'm seeing them in both browsers.

I am not seeing them that way.

Odd.
